pardon

 

•

poet,

penning paragraphs

pretty

purple

pigments

plying,

paint-flecked

parchment paper

peculiar phrases 

presenting

pink

protracted

pain

purging past,

promising pardon

•

~Melanie Thomason

Hope

Holding on to

One dream one

Promise to be

Exempt from despair

~Melanie Thomason

 

fallen

♠

pumpkin

poplar leaf

it drifts lazily

landing beneath the tree

fallen

♣

scarlet

maple leaf

it glides elegantly

to the forest floor

fallen

♠

marigold

hickory leaf

it floats gracefully

to rest with me

fallen
